Tong Yuejuan didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "My little brother has been entrusted with important tasks at a young age. He must be full of talent and learning and have a bright future. Are you making preparations to start your own business?"
"I haven't decided what to shoot yet, I'm so worried right now."
"They have all come from this stage. If you have any difficulties, feel free to come to me. Your company must also be registered with the Federation."
"I will definitely visit you in a few days!"
After Tong Yuejuan finished chatting with Zhuang Cheng, she turned to Chen Xunqi and complained: "Xunqi, you are a well-known all-rounder in Xiangjiang. Now that you have opened your own company, you should make a big difference. There is only one word difference between your name and that of the mainland communist bandit, but
Don’t lose to others!”
"Yes!"
"I'm very optimistic about you, come up with a good film quickly!"
"As soon as possible!"
"Hey, look at how charming your mustache is. It's a pity that I'm old..."
Chen Xunqi was excited and suddenly remembered the flower language of the steel ball - wealth and forbearance!
Fortunately, Tong Yuejuan knew not to go too far, so she teased her a bit and went to the next table. Zhuang Cheng came over and whispered: "Brother, do you want to sleep with me?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I don't know about others, and I definitely don't!"
Chen Xunqi didn't want to talk about this topic and said: "Little brother, since you have entered the industry and you are a golden princess, you need to contact me more in the future. This is my business card!"
"This is mine!"
The two parties exchanged business cards, and Zhuang Cheng hummed in response, lamenting in his heart: Then you will be miserable!
The reception lasted until very late.
The bosses of small and medium-sized companies all came in person. Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest sent representatives, but New Art City did not participate as usual.
And these bosses, regardless of how they scolded her in private, were respectful to Tong Yuejuan. Li Lianying shed tears when she saw her, and An Dehai kowtowed when she saw her... Tong Yuejuan enjoyed the pleasure of being surrounded by stars holding the moon, which was a break away from vulgar taste.
Far beyond physical pleasure.
Zhuang Cheng's eyes were opened to a scene he had never seen in the past 20 years.
It also shattered his dream of becoming a big shot in the film industry. It turns out that the so-called big shot in the film industry is at most a good dog in front of political forces!
…………
"Hahaha, loan!"
The next day, Zhuang Cheng called Chen Qi. Chen Qi laughed hard on the phone and said: "We must get a loan... No, no, we have sufficient funds and we need a loan. Don't you understand? This money
Not just for you!”
"Don't be in a hurry to film. You need to set up the company framework first and get to know the bosses of those companies."
"You can develop your own projects, sign new people, or sign directors. You are the boss, so don't always ask me. I will tell you when I have a film to make."
"Okay, that's it!"
After hanging up the phone, Chen Qi still wanted to laugh.
Oops, loan!
This policy is wonderful!
Legendary Pictures' first-ever film must be released in Golden Princess and distributed in Taiwan.
But Taiwan’s censorship is very strict!
From 1949 to 1987, Taiwan implemented martial law for 38 years, including but not limited to: curfews in some cities, strict control of news and publications, and various literary and artistic works.
Jin Yong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the Condor Heroes will be associated with "Spring Snow in Qinyuan", so it was renamed "The Legend of the Desert Heroes".
Writer Chen Yingzhen was found in possession of a set of the complete works of Mark Twain. The judge said: "Mark Twain and Marx are both named Ma, which is obviously evidence of collusion with bandits." He was sentenced to twelve years.
There is a No. 8 bus on the streets of Taipei. When waiting for the bus, everyone will shout "No. 8 is coming, No. 8 is coming!" and then it is cancelled.
There is a folk song "Catching Loaches". The original lyrics were "Xiao Mao's brother, take him to catch loaches." Xiao Mao thought of the teacher, so it was changed to "Calf".
Especially for songs, the government censors songs once a week. From 1979 to 1987, a total of more than 930 songs were banned.
Why can a large number of folk songs emerge in Taiwan?
Just because I'm not allowed to sing anything else, I can only sing "Country Road" and so on.
The same goes for movies. In the past few years, common elements in Hong Kong movies, such as saltiness, gambling, monsters and ghosts, were all banned in Taiwan and had to be deleted if they wanted to be released. But now it is becoming more and more relaxed, and Taiwan wants to give preferential treatment to Hong Kong movies.
Just have a good relationship with the General Association and the Information Bureau.
Chen Qi wants to make a film that can sell money in both Hong Kong and Taiwan, but he still has to write an article first.
…………
“When I heard that Director John Woo left Golden Harvest and joined New Art City, I couldn’t help but feel more pressure.
He is a very, very good director. I have watched his comedies "Money is Cold" and "Money Makes Trouble" more than a hundred times. He has a unique talent and understanding in comedies, and he is definitely a master.
Although Director Wu's works have not been good in recent years, I feel that Golden Harvest did not give him enough space to show his strength in comedy films. I have always wanted to invite him to join Yindu, but I was beaten to the punch, which is really a mistake.
!
The addition of Director Wu to New Art City can be said to be a big help, and reorganization is just around the corner..."
In the office, Mai Jia's facial features were twisted into a ball, and he read this article over and over again, thinking to himself: "Is he really fake? He is so optimistic about John Woo, and is he still a master?"
When Mai Jia hired people, he didn’t think John Woo was a master!
He instinctively thought there was something fishy, ​​but he agreed with one thing: John Woo should make comedies, and he should make comedies when he comes to New Art City!
New Arts City started out as a comedy company. Mai Jia anchored this track and basically did not make other types of films. Tsui Hark left because of this.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Please come in!"
Someone pushed the door open and came in. It was John Woo who still had hair and was only 36 years old.
"Just in time! I was just going to find you..."
Mai Jia enthusiastically put him in his seat and asked, "How are you doing? Do you have any ideas for the film?"
"Well……"
John Woo had a complicated expression and said: "Can we stop making comedies? I want to try other content."
"What are you going to do if you don't make comedies? You are great at making comedies. Now you just made a mistake. The next one will definitely regain your prestige."
"But I..."
"That's it, let's do comedy!"
"All right!"
John Woo was helpless.
He was a director, and he made two comedies in his early years that were very successful, so he was recognized as a comedy director. As a result, he became more and more popular. He jumped to New Art City hoping to change the environment, but he was asked to make a comedy.
Historically, he would keep fighting and fighting. At the worst time, he would be trained by others and asked to learn how to film from the newcomers.
It wasn't until Tsui Hark reached out to help him and produced "A Better Tomorrow" that he turned around. He was out of control. His peak was in Hollywood, where he filmed "Face/Off" and "Mission: Impossible 2", and then continued to dive all the way.
He was in movies 30 years ago, and he is still in movies 30 years later. He has been unable to come up with anything new for a long time. Moreover, what this person is like is well known, so I won’t go into details.
He and Director Chen from Mainland China are two unparalleled twins...
Naturally, John Woo also saw Chen Qi's article, and he was also puzzled, why did that mainland guy praise himself so much? Does he really like to make comedies by himself?
Chapter completed!
